I think all we really want is skip notifying completions on a
"suspended" queue. We can tell by the value of the cq-vector,
and it's already lock protected.
It also sounds like we need to poll the cq after the delete completes
to catch successful completions before we force cancel the rest.
This appears to work for me. Does it pass your test?
